Dual Enrollment at Ohio Northern University

Partnering Today for Tomorrow’s Leaders

The dual enrollment program provides participating high schools with a unique and sustainable way to deliver rigorous curriculum to their students through college-level courses taught in their home facilities by qualified faculty members. The dual enrollment program allows for a broad range of student participation by eliminating the need for students to leave their high school campuses in order to attend college courses.

Benefits

Participating in a dual enrollment program benefits both students and high schools. Benefits of the program include:

Providing rigorous postsecondary academic challenges to high school students in their own supportive high school environments

Providing college access to a broad range of students by placing actual college courses within high schools

Affording students and families savings in the overall cost of higher education

Focusing student learning on critical thinking and writing skills

Evaluating students with multiple and varied assessments, rather than one high-stakes test

Creating spillover effects that “raise the bar” throughout partner schools, even in non-dual enrollment courses

Fostering strong local networks among secondary and postsecondary educators that result in seamless transitions for students as they move from high school to college
